It seems this is the evolution of making a living on social media.
Your You Tube feed is only populated by the most popular content.
I used to enjoy what seemed like more serious and longer and more in depth content.
Now I notice that people who don't put out content nearly daily are left behind and never show up in my feed again.
It's also shorter and shittier content.
But, apparently this is what one must do to make money on social media now.
You're right. Lloyd could totally do this. Churn out some shallow 10 minute videos every day, rather than the interminably long ones he's known for and it might work for him.
Will we see a Lloyd video every day?
Probably not.

I notice it's now $208 Jamaican!
We once found a $10 Jamaican bill on the street.
We took it to the bank and they said it was worth just about nothing.
So, we took it home and put it on the refrigerator.
Nice conversation starter.

this guy: how embarrassing.it's also sad that when it was being filmed, no one thought to tell him "you don't have to over do it..they'll get the point.."now he lives forever in internet infamy.

I don't think he was very convincing as an ANTI masturbation poster boy.
It looked like he'd had quite a bit of practice.

Sea Breeze, pay no attention to Syd.
Some people are just crazy. And that's how it goes.
He's just a lost soul swimming in a fish bowl year after year.
He keeps running over the same old ground, and what's he found?
The same old fears.
And is he happy there alone?
No!
He wishes you were here.

"Losing my Religion" was REM, Sea Breeze.
That's my vote as well.

Hi, all. I haven't checked in for awhile and decided to do so today.
Great job on locating Tony Morris!
It's so miserably hot today in suburban DC. 97 degrees F plus crazy humidity giving us a heat index of 105 F! That's 36 and 40 C!
The grid is struggling. I have not signed up for those smart thermostats that the power company uses to cycle your equipment, and there's been no brownouts so far.
Just hanging out inside in the air conditioning with the ceiling fans going so I can keep the temp slightly warmer than the usual indoor temperature. Not using the oven, washer or dishwasher. Fingers crossed that my electric bill won't be astronomical.
How's everyone doing this summer? Surviving in the northeast? I shouldn't complain because this is our first spell of really hot weather and you folks to the west have been suffering for much longer!
Just checking on everyone! Stay cool!

I remember an age cap for Circuit Overseers..
Wasn't it at the same time District Overseers were phased out?
And near the time of the Great Layoffs at Bethel?
My tentative thesis is that it was to thin the ranks of bloated upper management. It was a money saving slimdown.
They are having trouble keeping elders, so I don't think they had a reason to limit elders' ages.

the acting attorney general just announced 5 more jws arrested for csa.

one is still at large (wanted).

and, he is an elder.
GrreatTeacher

I still have family there though I live in Maryland.
I grew up in a circuit where some of this abuse allegedly happened.
The PA Attorney General has made more arrests. They have chosen to pursue this by pouring in a lot of time and resources which can make the difference between justice being served or not.
One perp killed himself rather than turn himself in.
The AG is breathing down every congregation in the state's necks. Elders should be scared. This will not go away quietly.
